Dr. Sasson’s 35+ year career in the dental field began at the Goldman School of Graduate Dentistry at Boston University. Following graduation, he advanced his skills, knowledge, and training by earning his certification in Oral Implantology from Brookdale Hospital in New York. In the coming decades, he published several papers in peer-reviewed publications, like The Laryngoscope, and held faculty appointments at the Harvard School of Dental Medicine. As a result, he is a widely respected dentist and a leader in the Boston dental community. To this day, he continues to pursue advanced training as well; he is currently an active member of the American Dental Association, the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, the International Association for Orthodontics, and several other professional organizations.
The previously mentioned accomplishments are certainly important, but what really makes him stand out from the rest is his patient-centered philosophy of care. He genuinely enjoys sitting down with each patient to learn about their unique dental needs and smile goals. In other words, he doesn’t treat teeth; he treats people! So, you will never feel like just another patient with Dr. Sasson.
Since Dr. Sasson is the founder of the Career in Dental Assisting Institute, much of his time outside the office is spent pouring into the next generation of dental professionals. Of course, he loves spending lots of time with his family as well, and he enjoys swimming, lying on his hammock, and playing golf when the weather is nice!
Dr. Shainhouse is proud to work alongside Dr. Sasson to help patients with gum disease and tooth loss achieve healthy, happy smiles again! Originally from Canada, he obtained his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of Western Ontario. Then, he moved to Boston and pursued advanced training in both periodontics and implant dentistry. Now he has a specialist degree from New York University, and he is a board-certified periodontist! Plus, he is a Diplomate of the American Board of Periodontics, a Fellow of the Royal College of Dentists of Canada, and an active member of the American Academy of Periodontology. Like Dr. Sasson, he genuinely enjoys getting to know each and every person so he can provide the custom, cutting-edge, and compassionate dental care they deserve.
I just recently moved to Boston and have only ever seen one other dentist, and so I was nervous but everyone at Dr. Sasson's office made me feel right at home. The hygienist was very thorough and broke down all the new information for me very clearly. Dr. Sasson listened to my concerns and helped me make a plan to improve. I will be going back for cleanings and anything else needed!
